Le Laperouse Cruises

Teas, coffees and pastries are always on hand, and all drinks are complimentary (top wines and spirits are extra). The stylish lounges and bars are pleasant centres to relax on a sea day. There’s a unique Blue Eye underwater lounge, with three underwater cameras that project screen images, as well as two underwater portholes that let you view directly what’s there beneath the water line, as you recline and view life underwater, listen also to the subaquatic sounds pickup up by aquaphone.

The main theatre seats 188, comes equipped with the latest sound and lighting technology, and an LED wall as the stage backdrop for the projection of high-resolution images and videos. Presentations by naturalists, lecturers, experienced guides and specialists are delivered in the large main lounge.

On expedition cruises your on-shore activities will be exceptional, the ship provides all necessary adventure equipment, and advises you on personal health and dress requirements in preparation for the cruise.

The ship has salon facilities in association with the French beauty house SOTHYS of Paris. And the fitness rooms have panoramic ocean views while you keep in shape.
